AIA Honors the Life, Lessons, and Legacy of Philip Konvitz

January 22, 2009Posted by Eric Granofin News

For those of you who might be unfamiliar with “Mr. Phil,” he was an icon in the world of bail bonding and he presided over International Fidelity & Allegheny Casualty for over 35 years. In 2003, AIA was born to ensure the long-term prosperity of these companies in the wake of Phil’s retirement.

AIA produced a commemorative newsletter in honor of Mr. Phil’s legacy and out of respect for the impact he has had on our company. Last week it was mailed to almost 8,000 bail agents across the country.

  View the Commemorative Newsletter here in PDF format.
